Saul Bass died nearly 20 years ago, but his influence still looms large over Hollywood. Over the course of his 40-year career, Bass designed some of the most iconic movie posters and title sequences for auteurs like Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick, and Martin Scorsese. He also created corporate logos for AT&T and Continental Airlines, though his bold, stylized film posters may be his most  lasting legacy. Film.com has published a gallery of every poster Bass ever created, including one for a film that was never produced, and dozens more that have become as seminal as the movies they promoted.
